What is the relationship between convection currents, seafloor spreading, and the formation of ocean basins?

Answer:

There is a direct relationship between the convection current, spreading of the seafloor and ocean basin formation.

During the time of divergent plate motion, two plates move in the opposite direction due to the convection current generating in the mantle layer, which forces the plates to move in the opposite way. This results in the formation of cracks on the seafloor, and with progressive motion, the seafloor spreading takes place, thereby forms a narrow type of valley, erupting the magma along with water. This, over some millions of years, turns into an ocean basin.

Thus, they are directly related to one another and are some of the major processes of plate tectonics.

Seafloor spreading occurs at divergent plate boundaries. As tectonic plates slowly move away from each other, heat from the mantle's convection currents makes the crust more plastic and less dense. The less-dense material rises, often forming a mountain or elevated area of the seafloor.

Answer:

The fix nitrogen into free nitrogen which is a usable form. They also bring nitrogen back into the system by decomposing dead organisms.




Answer 2. 

Because, they are known as nitrogen fixing bacteria. These organisms convert nitrogen in the soil to ammonia, which can then be taken up by plants. After nitrogen has been fixed, other bacteria convert it into nitrate, in a process known as nitrification.


Both answer is correct choose the best choice for you.

active transport and facilitated diffusion are two types of cellular transport which statement is true of both
Dovator [93]

Answer:

I believe the correct answer is both involve proteins in the cell membrane.

Explanation:

This is because Facilitated diffusion does not require any energy to transport molecules, while Active transport requires ATP. Facilitated diffusion transports molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration (or down a concentration gradient). Active transport moves molecules from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration (or up a concentration gradient). Answer choice A is the only choice that makes sense.

Hope this helps,
